JSON models and validation
This project is a good learning resource, but I'd recommend using data models to work with JSON. Have a look at JSONModel - it'll validate your JSON input and make working with the received objects easier: https://github.com/icanzilb/JSONModel
Agreed, thanks for the resource! Seems like a great project to utilize especially on larger projects with a lot of JSON parsing / object recreation.
I had made note of this in the "Known Bugs / Possible improvements" section, thanks for opening the issue. Was trying to build the project as fast as possible, but in the future, it seems like this will help speed things up even further once you get to know all the features / capabilities.
